EverQuest 72-Boxing: Plane of Fear Raid Plus a Golem or Two, Classic EQ
This is a local install of EQ Emulator where I have assembled a raid team of 72 characters. In this video, I'm raiding Plane of Fear and will talk about some considerations when taking a whole team into a zone where mobs have giant agro radiuses and where it's easy to get overwhelmed.
Most of my characters have little to no gear. I've been gearing up in Plane of Hate, Plane of Fear, Lower Guk, from Lord Nagafen, and from Lady Vox. I also have some resist gear on a handful of characters.
The MacroQuest macro library, e3, was used to create the scripts that control these characters, which can be found on Project EverQuest's forums.

EverQuest 72-Boxing: Training Up Defensive Skills Painlessly So Mobs Stop Crushing Your DPS

This is a video where I take my 72-man EverQuest team into the Arena and have mage and beastlord pets beat on characters to max out their defensive skills quickly. These skills include Defense, Block, Parry, Dodge, and Riposte. Having these skills maxed out causes you to take less damage and get hit less often.

    For the future, there's a few crazy fights in GoD to box because you have to do some staying away from mobs and/or moving. I know they're possible with 4 people boxing ~18 chars each but never tried with a single full raid. Terris thule, xegony, Coirnav all kinda hard to box because of the add mechanics. Pretty sure you have to be set up to drive and tank with at least several chars and have macros setup for auto-mez. For QOL with buffs, you can do something like target self (keypress f1 I forgot what it is offhand) and /multiline ; /say #cast buff1ID; /say #cast buff2ID; /say #cast buff3ID ... The multiline schema is like /multiline delimiter commanddelimiter commanddelimiter..... makes turning 10+ socials into 1 which is nice and no more 5 minutes to buff.

      It's strange that you had that experience because I was often top DPS or near top when I played a wizard from Classic through Luclin on a TLP. There are specific bosses where we are terrible, but the average boss we usually excel. Against trash, casting one spell is okay when there's a big raid because you're one spell will deal upward of 800+ damage, which is a lot more than a typical melee will do when 40+ people are beating on trash.

    good for you, you wrote a bunch of macros. Youre so talented.

      I realize you're being sarcastic, but the amount of time that goes into writing macros that work efficiently and effectively, even on early encounters found in Classic, is not a simple feat. It's a lot more complex than say playing a single character and casting the same spell over and over or pressing Backstab every 9 seconds or so.

    Yea it’s always been that way if you are including trash. In guilds tho trash doesn’t really count for much. Before the raid window I do remember the KS group in the raid usually at least 3 wiz and the exp was great. If I remember wiz dropped off the in pop. Kunark gave lures, Velious had dragons/giantsbane, and so many meele didn’t have bane weapons in luclin. My experience may not be universal.

    I think the only thing you're missing is resist gear. Unless you have enough junk buffs from clikies too you're gonna have all your buffs gone extremely fast too. If you do this legit farming the clickies for all of your chars is gonna be a nightmare. (e.g. fishbone earring for all chars would be like what 576 hours?). I think you want to kill vox first unless you can get a lot more frost res than fire res. She has CH and both aoes hit 500ish with a dispel. I think Nagafen hits harder with melee though but I don't remember. Also, I'm not sure if it's a good idea at 50 unless you're using the war aggro discs that were put in later but you might want your debuffers to try to hit vox with a nullify magic prior to debuffing (I don't remember if that's post 50 or not). It'll probably resist a lot but some might get through. You don't want to hit her with it after debuffing her though.

      I debated on farming clickies but I wouldn't sit there and wait for mobs to respawn over and over. If anything, I would repop the zone or the mob repeatedly until I got every drop I needed. A form of cheating but mostly to speed up things. I plan to do something similar with the Epic quests. Do each quest once and then give the epics to everyone of that class when the first run through is done.

      @EverQuestBoxRaids I dont think it's really cheating as much as QOL at that point. You aren't gonna die to a lot of the mobs that drop clickies without being afk. Also, you're effectively playing single-player.

    EQ was the BEST MMORPG ever created. People used to two box all the time back in the day. Never saw a 72 box 😆 Used to farm Naggy/Vox all the time.

    Dave, that was a genius idea to combine Vox and Nagafen. It gave it a ToV kind of flavor in a vanilla expansion. I saw a gm command 'scale' that could possibly be used to set PoHate and Fear bosses down to level 58 or whatever original classic was. Spells should scale but if not that makes it challenging. Great vid which opens the idea to custom raids.

    • @EverQuestBoxRaids
      @EverQuestBoxRaids 15 днів тому

      I saw Scale as well and worry that it will edit database entries in a way that I won't know how to revert. It was fun doing Nagafen and Vox together - even if I wiped. I'll have to try again before moving to Kunark. Do you have any ideas for combo fights for Kunark? Right now I'm recording the last of my Classic videos that should go live in early-to-mid October.

    People doing this kind of stuff in live is why I quit. Everyone just plays with themselves now because the devs dont care if you multibox. Thus it has lost almost all of its social aspects, and is why its deader than dead. I log on 2 years after stopping and see the same 5 people talking in chat. Noone new. Its really sad tbh.
